Sumii, you went into even more detail…but I agree.

This situation harkens to the Mass Effect 3 last scene screw-up…and that situation blew up in BioWare’s face all over the MMO publications. I guess those that forget (recent) history are doomed to repeat it.

Wow. One paragraph after the PAGES of issues players have brought up.

Not terribly effective in my book.

There’s detail, yes, but refer back to my “everything’s sunny here at GW2.” Nowhere in that message do they address the problems.

As a long-time gamer, I share some of the concerns my of the other players of GW2 do. However, I’m not going to continue the griping about specific play issues. I do want to say this, though…

After laying down the money for not one, but two, copies of GW2, I’m taken aback by the lack of communication (or should I say, thorough communication) by the GW2 developers. Especially telling was the head of global community’s comment about people griping and the inevitable curtaining of specific forum topics. Couple this with the “everything’s sunny here at GW2” attitude being regurgitated in light of the numerous complaints of players (who BOUGHT your game), and this is a PR nightmare.

Professionally, I’ve done public relations and marketing. And right now, you’ve got a crisis on your hands. If you keep telling your BUYERS that you’re going to shut down their ways of expressing their concerns and by NOT forthrightly and immediately answering your many player’s concerns, you might as well say “no comment” and “kiss our *,” as well as saying goodbye to any further cache in the online gaming market. You are pissing people off right and left by ignoring the concerns. Either get out here and give the players (like me) some detail, or we go to another game for good.
